The Braves then travel to West Virginia and Greenville to close out April and open the month of May.

Rome returns for an off day followed by a seven-game homestand against Charleston (May 5-7) and Hickory (May 8-10). The Braves then travel to Lakewood and Hagerstown for a six-game swing against the Northern Division foes.
